CHICAGO (WBBM) — New Regional Transportation Authority executive director Joseph Costello is determined to keep one eye on immediate needs and the other on the future.

“Clearly, financial challenges are in front of us, and so that’s job one,” Costello said. “But at the same time, we can’t forget to look to the future. What makes cities great is good public transportation. We need to reenergize this city, and this state, and even on a national level.”

As WBBM Newsradio 780’s Bob Roberts reports, Costello was the agency’s treasurer for 15 years.
